Service conditions and relevant properties of HTGR metallic materials

  • 1. Hochtemperatur-Reaktorbau GmbH, Mannheim (Germany, F.R.)

Description

Primary coolant temperatures in an HTGR lie between 250 and 1000 deg. C. Special requirements for HTGR components, and hence materials have arisen, because of the temperatures, the properties of the coolant and neutron irradiation in regions adjacent to the core, coupled with the nuclear quality and safety codes. Typical major metallic components are steam generators, helium/helium heat exchangers, steam reformers and control and shut down rods. The operational conditions for these components are given. The present status of the knowledge of the data for the most important material properties for component layout is described. (author). 13 figs, 11 tabs
